Right so in theory you can have religion as long as it makes no claims and you can have God as long as it has no power and you can have faith in it all as long as there is nothing to have faith in.
Does anyone really want that? I was raised a devout kid. I didn’t pray to no diest god, I was convinced the Bible held the keys to the universe not a bunch of stories that are best metaphors by long dead ignorants, I “knew” that God took an active role in our world, and I also “knew” that my religion alone had the proper moral conduct for humanity.
In order to save religion from science you have to abandon one or the other. Even if you could somehow weaken religion to the point, a god of the gaps if you will, where it can still live what you are left with is not worth thinking about
So basically you have invented a god that knew that childhood cancer would be a thing but let’s it happen because he thinks helping is worse than that.
I don’t know about you but I am a parent and wouldn’t sit there while my kid is dying for fear that I would corrupt their natural self.

As long as god can not be measured, it does not exist for science.

There are facts underpinning theoretical physics.

The only excuse for God is it doesn’t exist.
